Newbie Question

You are still on the old forums server. If you reading this, please try to clear your DNS cache with "ipconfig /flushdns" or add "70.85.60.244 forums.majorgeeks.com" to your hosts file.

Ok, I did the ipconfig / flush. Said flush successful.

How do I get to my hosts file??

Win XP Home SP2

The links to a thread I get in my E-Mail take me to the above message.

 

I found host info here. http://accs-net.com/hosts/how_to_use_hosts.html
I chickened out and didn't change anything though. Which turned out okay because my error messages stopped w/o me doing either. Maybe I need to, hmmm,

 

Well I made the entry in my "hosts" file,,,, I think.... Did no good.

 

There was a post earlier about a server test. I don't think the error messages were for us. The problem fixed itself.

 

I got that message yesterday too. I just basically ignored it, clicked on Home, then Support Forums, then chose the Lounge and got back in. Course, this morning I had to login again but otherwise, no big deal. I didn't change any settings or run ipconfig.

I reckon I would have resorted to that if nothing else had worked tho.

 

forums.majorgeeks.com works okay now.

 

seems to be ok now
